NOW THAT WE'VE REACHED RETIREMENT, WE'RE OFF TO START THE NEXT ADVENTURE IN OUR LIVES. COME ALONG AND SEE WHERE WE'VE BEEN!

Quoted From A Fellow Traveler:

Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile. Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we should dance.

Off To The Salton Sea

Here we are leaving our desert campground in Tucson. Was a nice twisty road which would be great on a motorcycle. We continued on route 10 till we connected with route 8 which took us to the Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area. You can run you dune buggy or 4 wheeler, plus there is BLM land everywhere in this area which means free camping.

So where did all that sand come from, wow!

As we continued on we pass through the Imperial Valley and miles upon miles of farms. As we were passing some fields of cauliflower, I noticed that something was in the field. It turned out to be sheep. Yup, the sheep were filling up on fresh veggies.

And a little further down the road, they were eating in another field. Bahhhhd sheep!!!!!

As we arrived at Salton Sea, we noticed that the area where we camped last year was Closed so we had to squeeze into one of the other camping areas along the shore. It's really sad to see that so many state campgrounds and rest areas are closing due to a lack of funds.
